Description

White House Farmhouse is a cottage dated 1675. It is constructed of whitewashed brick with a fragment of timber framing and features a Swithland slate roof with a brick ridge, as well as right end and rear stacks. The building has an L-shaped plan, with a wing projecting to the rear on the right. It stands two storeys high and has three horizontal sliding sash windows arranged as 3-light, 2-light, and 3-light, above a similar 3-light window on either side of a part-glazed door. A single panel of large timber framing is visible on the left side of the first floor, while the rest of the facade has been refaced in brick, with the ground floor rendered. The date of construction is noted on a painted stone tablet located below the right window on the ground floor, which reads 'W.R.E. 1675'.
